Sixty percent of winter wheat has been harvested in southeast Kansas.

That's according to the USDA's National Agricultural Statistics Service's latest crop progress report. Southeast Kansas leads the state in this year's harvest, and K-State Research and Extension Wildcat District Crop Agent James Coover says that's not unusual. The total harvested for Kansas is now at 21 percent, which is well behind 54% last year, and behind 38% average.

Corn and soybeans emerged across the state are near average, while sorghum planted is behind average. Cotton planted is near average while sunflowers are ahead of last year.
